Curlewis Banjo's 28/02/2015

Post by joffarob »

Spent a couple hours with the family on the beach at Curlewis Saturday afternoon, We enjoyed the free show from the Air Show at Avalon and i tried out my new 5mm wetsuit that worked a treat, It was very buoyant so will have to use a weight belt and figure out the correct weight. Wasn't a lot of fish about but the Banjos kept me amused. I was impressed as to how quick and well they can hide in the sand.
